THINK FIRST
Q:
I was involved in a recent product redesign. The process took more than a year to complete and has resulted in what we believe is the most technologically advanced product in its category. However, I’m concerned that I may have identified a design flaw that could, in certain circumstances, make the product short-circuit and cause a fire. I mentioned this to my manager. He assured me that there was negligible risk and we should not second-guess a very exhaustive testing process. This is bothering me because someone could get hurt. My manager refuses to discuss the matter any further. Who can I talk to?
A:
Safety is a critical concern for us—when designing and building our products and after they’ve left the factory. You should speak either to a senior manager on the Engineering team or contact the Compliance team, your local EHS representative or a member of the corporate EHS team or submit a report to the Integrity Helpline. That way, your concern can be properly evaluated and escalated, if necessary.
